Be sure to check out Workforce Preparation and click on Career Stories. These are real stories written by Illinoisians of all ages, adults, teens, and children regarding careers.

Students may want to create a book of career stories modeled after the ones on this site but featuring stories of those learners in a class. A nice extension would be to create these stories using mulitmedia and real audio.
